There's also added air intakes for the engine and air vents to help cool the brakes, to help deal with the constant demands on both that come with track usage.Įvery bit as beastly as you might expect, given its looks.
Instead, it makes do with an arsenal of more conventional aero weapons, such as a manually adjustable rear wing, a "shark fin" running down the spine that helps stabilize the car while turning, air ducts running through the hood and more - all of which combine to help the car generate up to 53 percent more downforce than the Huracan Performante did. (Lambo quotes a 0-62 mph time of 3.0 seconds flat, whereas independent tests have found the Performante can do 0-60 in 2.2.) It also, interestingly, does without the ALA active aerodynamics found on the Huracan Performante and Aventador SVJ that route airflow left and right to help slice through turns more quickly and viciously. Unlike the prior contender for Category 5 Huracan, the all-wheel-drive Performante, the STO sends all its power to the rear wheels. But not, notable, the quickest, at least in a straight line. It's Lambo's most hardcore version of the Huracan yet. The underlying Huracan, of course, has been around since 2014, although it's stayed fresh through a combination of life cycle updates (the most recent being the upgraded Huracan Evo that debuted in 2019), periodic special editions.and the inherent charm that comes with looking like a roadgoing stealth fighter. They stand for "Super Trofeo Omologato" - which, translated from car-nerd Italian to everyday English, effectively means "street-legal version of our race car for really rich guys who want to race other really rich guys on an even playing field."
SUPER START POWER PACK REVIEW SERIES
The company has dallied in selling GT3 race cars based off its V10-powered models since 2007, but it's also created its own one-make series for die-hard Lambo fans called " Super Trofeo" - and it's these race cars that have led to the new Huracan STO. Still, the pull of victory in competition is tough to resist for any company that traffics in fast cars.and Lamborghini's are certainly that. Whereas Ferrari's legend has always been tied to racing - in particular Formula 1 - Lambo's cars have been more about speed and style for the street. When Ferruccio Lamborghini flicked his hand under his chin at Enzo Ferrari back in 1963 by creating his own car company, it was with the aim of making a stellar grand touring car, not a street-going justification for a racing machine. They have not, however, always trafficked in racing. Lamborghinis have always trafficked in excess.
